KDP Episode 029: Don't Fear (Or Glorify) Fat

Welcome back to the Ketodontist Podcast!  Today we are talking about fat, saturated fat in particular.  With the recent claims that coconut oil is “pure poison”, we wanted to dive into this topic and shine some light.  In this episode we discuss:   Is coconut oil worse than other fat sources? Is saturated fat bad for you? Who should, and shouldn’t, avoid saturated fat? Why context is important on determining fat intake And MORE! Friend of the show Marty Kendall shared a post of his with me and I wanted to pass it along as it jives with this episode beautifully.   https://optimisingnutrition.com/2016/06/27/what-about-saturated-fat/ You can listen directly at these links! iTunes:  https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/ketodontist-podcast/id1252428998?ls=1 Stitcher:  http://www.stitcher.com/podcast/ketodontist-podcast Google Play: https://play.google.com/music/listen?u=0#/ps/Itp6hga6aknibumb4gy7eveduqq Podcast Homepage:  http://ketodontist.libsyn.com   Resources mentioned in this episode:   https://www.theguardian.com/food/2018/aug/22/coconut-oil-is-pure-poison-says-harvard-professor   https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation-now/2017/06/16/coconut-oil-isnt-healthy-its-never-been-healthy/402719001/   https://health.gov/dietaryguidelines/2015-scientific-report/PDFs/Scientific-Report-of-the-2015-Dietary-Guidelines-Advisory-Committee.pdf#page=453   https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5855206/   Robb Wolf’s Keto Masterclass (affiliate link): www.learnketonow.com
